All schools across the UK to have skirts and shorts unbanned
Allow skirts and shorts to be a choice around all schools in the Uk.
Being able to wear Skirts and shorts in the UK especially during warm weathers can help a lot for students.
When it gets to hot, some students aren’t able to concentrate in the heat. Especially when some schools force students to keep their blazers on.
Some students which are in the LGBTQ+ community might not feel comfortable in the assigned uniform at school. Having a small choice between skirts, shorts, and pants can be a big impact on helping students express themself.
